The Scottish-born Ian Hunter was the last descendant of the founding Johnston family, led the fortunes of the Laphroaig distillery from 1908 to 1944 and is still considered one of Laphroaig's most important distillery managers today, as he made important changes to the production of the distinctive Islay malt, ensuring an expansion of the malting floors and doubling the stills from 2 to 4. He brought back the first bourbon casks from his travels in the USA, in which the whisky has been primarily matured since then.
